“I trust in our leaders’ decisions,” Rahman said with a smile. “I will continue to do my job the best I can, through my actions, my faith will be redeemed, and my country will be safe.”

Something for the kill all Muslims crowd to chew on.
That is nice to hear. Many people have indicated that Islam's condemnation of terrorism would be better received if they put their money where their mouths are, so to speak.
Good to see that this young man is doing just that!
One out of over 1 billion Muslims.
I get sick of the thinly veiled racism/violence around here.
Kill them ALL? Really??
I notice that no one is brave/stupid enough to advocate that on this thread in the face of the truth.
Not so brave when it comes to saying we should kill this Marine now.....just because he is a Muslim.... are they??
However, for some Marines who are of the Islamic faith, the war in Iraq hits a personal note. Cpl. Mohammed N. Rahman, who is a Sunni Muslim, fights not only to free the people of Iraq from the insurgents grip and to protect his country (America), but also to redeem his beloved religion.
“This is a personal offense, not only to me but others who share my faith,” said the 23-year-old infantryman with 2nd Platoon, Company L. “The insurgents have scarred the image of my religion.”
Here is my solution, the Roman Solution (referencing the Roman destruction of the Temple of Jerusalem in 70 AD)
1. Western Countries "Everytime Muslims kill foreigners in the name of Islam, we will drop a bomb on the Ka'bah."
2. We will continue to bomb mecca everytime a terrorist act is carried out, until the bloodshed is stopped.
3. When we Christians suicide bomb Muslim populations, we will bomb one of our own churches to avenge you,
4. And by the way, our troops in Iraq and Afghanistan cover their bullets in pig's blood.
Remember kids, it's not genocide if it's against the "Muslimes". Gas chambers, concentration camps, and firing squads are perfectly okay if it's "Muslimes".
Adolf who?
